i agree with Simon, she may not react good....just leave it for now. the brainwashing from the Borg is so strong. just live your life and show by example.

My brother died last night

i found out this morning that my brother died last night, he was also an ex jw, 73 years old and died of heart disease and kidney failure.

it was not totally unexpected, as he had been in poor health, but it's a blow, especially as i just lost another brother two years ago.

there were six of us, now only four.

So sorry LisaRose....my thoughts are with you!!!!!!!!!!!

these are the times we realize all that matters is love and family. everything else could go to hell in a hand basket.

I'm getting baptized

i know i've started similar topics before but this time i'm serious.

my parents have been constantly pressuring me and after yesterday's watchtower study they asked me if i was going to be baptized this summer... and i said yes.

i probably should have thought about it more before making a final decision, but they're pretty much forcing me to do it anyway.

I'm still on my JWN holidays but had to pop back to share this experience.

i'm a postman with the royal mail and was assigned to train a new starter yesterday.

my line manager introduces me to 'dave', within seconds my jw radar was on maximum!

in his mid to late 30's, politely spoken and with that haircut - i just knew it.. the post he'd applied for was saturdays only, he said he did a lot of volunteer work.

Are the anointed really "lovely people"?

by purrpurr in

i've personally never met any of those who claim to be anointed but the other jw's who have are always unanimous in their praise of how lovely and what wonderful people they are.

and i don't mean the gb i mean common or garden anointed.

i was told that when they speak about being in heaven that they almost "seem to glow".. is this right?

There is no such thing as anointed. it's a JW fairy tale.

Confronting the elders with doubts

by HowTheBibleWasCreated in

i have already posted how i outed to an elder.... the only results were that another elder mentioned to me: "i heard you have doubts about the truth will you meet with us and clear it up... i also had doubts... i fixed them i can help.

" laughing inwardly i said sure.. oh i'm going to slaughter this moron.

when he asks my doubts i will show him the chromosome #2 video with ken miller.

good on you!

as for me, i wouldn't give these jokes a minute of my time. i would rather talk with a wall.

What will be the Next Flip Flop?

by Quarterback in

now that the soc has accepted the use of technology.

what is next?

could it be the disfellowshipping?

goingthruthemotions

i do believe the next change will be with the 144000. they have to cover there arses for the increase in partakers, the last explanation about people partaking did not completely put to bed the question of why so many more are doing it.

remember, it's a cult!!!!!!!

Be ready to obey!!

http://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/w20131115/seven-shepherds-eight-dukes/.

from paragraph 17-. at that time, the life-saving direction that we receive from jehovah’s organization may not appear practical from a human standpoint.

all of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not.. i think i know what the instructions will be.it's nothing new.

Reading this paragraph 17 in the Nov 2013 washtowel was my WTF moment. at that particular time i realized I had to get my family and myself away from this cult.

unfortunately, my wife has become even more braindoogled.
